Thanks everyone.  I've passed along the word, and wished him good luck.  And
emphasized the need for backups again .

Subject: [BBLISA] software hard disk recovery

 

One of my friends windows machine died today - boots up only half way
through the windows splash screen and freezes.  There is one file he wants
to recover out of it, but it seems to be suffering from hardware failure
because attaching the disk via USB enclosure to another computer will only
let him load the USB mass storage device, and won't go any further than
that.

 

So my question is .

 

What are the software hard disk recovery applications that people like,
which may save his file(s) and/or his dollars for him?

 

Of course, free is awesome, but commercial might be ok too.
